Do-It-Yourself Harvard MBA

Seems like the biggest value from top tier MBA programs is the peer/alumni network. Coursework is very much a second-class citizen to networking (at least in the programs my friends have attended).

Edit: Not to disparage the post, which does seem like a good list of business books.

Anyone who has an MBA will tell you that the least valuable thing about the experience is the book learning.

Just like there is an opportunity cost of getting a real MBA there is an opportunity cost of reading all of these books.

excellent recommendation. Just to be clear, I agree the opportunity cost of book reading.

But those who cant cannot afford the time and money, Doesn't it seems to be a much lower opportunity cost.
